HEREFORDSHIRE FINANCES. I Expenditure on Education, Roads, and I Polloe. The quarterly meeting of Herefordshire I County Council was held at the Shire Hall, Hereford, on Saturday, tjie Chairman (Colonel Prescott Decie) presiding, and Alderman James Corner being in the vice-chair. There was a full attendance of members. The War Office wrote stating that Mr W ASH Kevill Davies and Mr J T Lutley had been appointed on the Territorial Force Association, on the recommendation of the Council. The Herefordshire Insurance Committee applied for a contribution from the Council of J6620per annum for extending sanatorium benefit to the dependents of insured persons under Section 17 (2) Co) of the National Insurance Act. A precept was issued for a general purposes rate of 6d in the pound, to be payable to the treasurer on or before March 1. The Roads Committee reported that the returns showing the expenditure for the past quarter had not yet been received from the cllatrict councils, but the Committee asked for a provisional grant of £9,600 to enable them to be paid. Mr L G Cliff, of the county surveyor's office, Nottingham, had been appointed chief clerk in the surveyor's office at a salary of 11-50. During the quarter the Agricultural Com- mitter reported there was one outbreak of parasitic mange and seven of swine fever. The Committee bad authorised the notice to be given to the police of compulsory sheep dipping to be shortened from three days to 20 hours. There had been one or two alleged outbreaks of American gooseberry mildew, but on investigations being made this was not confirmed. The Standing Joint Committee reported that the amount required for police expenses during the quarter was £ 2,136. The pensions payable amounted to -6506. A contract for the purchase of the Drill Hall in Cantilupe Street, Roes, for Y,600, had been entered into, and the county surveyor bad been instructed to prepare plans for its conversion into a police court. The question of fees on qualifica- tion of justices had been considered, and it bad been decided that in future the qualify- ing fee should be £ 2 2s in every case, except- ing the ex-officio justices, by each of whom a fee of 5s would be payable. All these fees went to the county fund. The visitors to the asylum reported there were 531 patients in that institution-244 males and 287 females. There was less spfcre male accommodation owing to the return of 10 of the 23 male patients boarded out at Powick Asylum, Worcester. Owing to a variety of economic causes the Committee had been compelled to increase the mainten- ance charges to unions to 10s 6d per head a week. SMALL HOLDINGS. I The Small Holdings Committee had, sub- ject to the approval of the Board of Agricul- ture, agreed to take Blackmoor Farm, Abbeydore, 408 acres, on lease from Captain dive for thirty-five years at a rent of Y,358, to be adapted for seven small holdings at an estimated exense of £ 3,960. The scheme approved by the Board of Agriculture for the adaptation of the Rotherwas Estate brought the total estimated expenditure to XI,400, which the committee recommended should be boorowed on loan. It was stated that Dr Adam White, who had held the appointment of tuberculosis officer since May 1, had resigned, and the Public Health Commitee had directed the appointment to be advertised at the same salary as before-L300 per annum, besides expenses. A special committee had held an enquiry in respect to isolation hospitals, and after carefully considering the position in regard ] to the rural and urban districts of Ross, Ledbury and Leominster, they were unani- XQGusly of opinion that it was necessary that < reasonable provision for isolation accom- modation should be made in those districts, and they had decided to defer proceeding farther with the duties imposed on them by the statute until June 1, so as to afford the districts named an opportunity of fully con- sidering the matter. The committee also decided to recommend the Council to estab- lish a hospital for tuberculosis for all cases in the county if satisfactory arrangements could be made with the Insurance Com- mittee. The report of the Finance Committee stated that during the quarter the following amounts had been paid to the Education Committee:—October £5.925 03 3d, Nov- ember Z5,682 12a 7d, and December L6,570 78 6d, making a total of I- 18,178 Os 4d. The capital expenditure on the recent additions to Leominster Secondary School amounted to S,3,217, of which two-fifths ( £ 1,287) had to be provided by the borough and out-parish of Leominster. Towards this amount £ 1,000 had been borrowed from the Public Works Loan Board, and application should be made to the Local Government Board for consent to borrow the balance of Y,287, which with the 11,000 was chargeable in the agreed proportions of seven-ninths to the borough and two-ninths to the out-parish. The capital expenditure on the Ross Elementary Schools amounted to JE554 138 10d, of which £ 415 5a 6d was chargeable to the Ross Urban and Rural parishes. Consent to borrow 1358 for ten years had been obtained. The Aylestone Hill site at Hereford had been sold by public auction for Y,605, and the committee recommended that this should be applied, less- the expenses of sale, for the purchase of the allotments in Coningsby-street adjoining the Girls' Secondary School, which were recently purchased for £ 577 10s. I PROPOSED FARM INSTITUTE. The Education Committee reported that during the quarter 835 children had been examined by the school medical ofifcer, 106 of whom were recommended for special treatment. Local care committees had been established in connection with 96 schools. In regard to Bromyard Grammar School the committee had approved plans for the proposed enlargement in order that girls might be admitted as well as boys, and they had decided to make a grant of three-fifths of the cost of the alterations and equipment, providing the total cost of the alterations and equipment does not exceed An elaborate scheme for the establishment of a farm institute had been prepared, but the consideration of the matter had been postponed to the next meeting of the com- mittee. A bursary of £ 20, tenable for two years, had been granted to Mr Victor G Ursell, a former county scholar, and now an under- graduate at Balliol College, Oxford. Last year he won a Balliol scholarship of the value of 180 per annum, and was also awarded a leaving scholarship of 160 per- annum from the Monmouth Grammar School. The report was adopted.

INSURANCE OF PASSENGBRS* B A(tG ACI B. Passengers on the Great Western Railway are now able to insure their baggage with the Travellers' Baggage" Insurance Association. This insurance in effected by the purchase of an insurance ticket, and these tickets will be obtainable at the booking offices at the principal Great Western stations. The luggage may be insured for amounts of 220, 240, 260, or £100, and for periods of 15, 30, or 60 days. Thus for Is. a passenger can purchase an insurance ticket which insures cahn is E:ucrr c for a period of .9 age for a period of 15 days for 220, covering with certain restric- tions all risk of accident by sea or land gravel, also whilst staying at hotels and under all situations, including the risk of fire, theft, pilferage, sea-water damage, etc., whilst travelling or staying anywhere in Great Britain and Ireland. No declaration whatever is re- quired on issue of these insurance tickets, which will be delivered immediately upon i-polication at the principal station booking offices.

THE POSTAL TROUBLE. Responsibility of the Publio. A meeting of postal workers from Wor- cestershire, Gloucestershire and Hereford- shie was held at Worcester on Sunday. Mr Goulding, M.P. (chairman) expressed the hope that no strike was contemplated, and advised them to rely on the sense of justice of the public. Mr G H Stuart stated he could conceive a certain state of things in which a strike would become inevitable. There was no man or woman in the Post Office who desired a strike. They realised their respon- sibility to the public, but they also realised, what. many forgot, the public's respon- sibility to them. They were out to fight and to get what they thought they ought to get. Mr G Middleton, Postal and Telegraph Clerks' Association, proposed a resolution which entered an emphatic protest against the adoption of the Holt report in its present form as it still failed to deal adequately with the increase in the cost of living and, further, it was actually an attack on trades unionism in the Post Office. The resolution also demanded an immediate adequate in- crease in wages, and the elimination of the objectionable clauses of the report. The resolution was adopted.

HOW DYSPEPTICS CAN EAT WHAT THEY WANT WITHOUT PAIN. In the vast majority of cases, states a leading specialist, indigestion, dyspepsia, and other so- called stomach troubles are in no way due to the fault of the stomach itself, but almost entirely to fermentation of the food contents and the resultant formation of acid and gas which irritate and inflame the delicate lining of the stomach, and unnaturally distend the stomach wails, causing displacement of the vital organs and dangerous pressure on the heart and tung". He estimates that 96 per cent. of all stomach pains, either acute or chronic, are directly or indirectly due to acid fermentation all of which he has proved can be avoided by neutralising the acid and stopping the fermentation by means of a simple antacid known among and obtainable from all chemists under the name of bisurated magnesia; half a teaspoonful in a little water immediately after eating, effectively preventing the slightest indication of fermentation and dis- eom fort even in the severest cases. Inqniry among chemists confirmed the remarkable value of this product, but readers are cautioned when purchasing to see that the name is spelled b-i s-u-r-a-t-e-d, as there are other chemical pro- ducts bearing names similar to bisurated mag- nesia, but which are lacking in its peculiarly valuable properties.

NEWENT. THE LATE MR H G COOK.-Un Saturday the funeral of the late Mr Horace Gilbert Cook took place at Newent Cemetery amidst many manifestations of sympathy, deceased being held in high esteem by a large circle of friends. The body was enclosed in a polished elm coffin with massive brass furniture. Engraved on the breastplate was Horace Gilbert Cook, died January 6, aged 22 years."

IPROFITABLE POULTRY CULTURE. BY RALPH R ALLEN, Lecturer to the Herts County Council Editor of Monthly Hints on Poultry, &c. (All rights reserved.) I A SUCCESSFUL BREEDING SEASON. (Continued.) [Readers are particularly requested to note that this series of articles commenced with the first issue in January. In order to obtain their full value, the earlier articles should be read in conjunction with the current one.] I THE STRENGTH OF THE HAREM. I maintain that it is impossible to lay down a bard and fast rule as to the strength of the harem. So many conflicting con- ditions must be taken into consideration: A cockerel enjoying free range will fertilise the eggs of many more bens than if confined to a small run. The season of the year has great influence, and the same fertility cannot be expected in December as in April. Male birds of heavy breeds require a smaller harem than those of the sprightly Mediter- ranean type. Then the natural disposition of the male bird himself is a factor which overthrows any mathematical formula. The age of the bird has its effect, and if it is possible to form any actual deduction from all these conditions, temporary variations in cock's health would immediately discount it. A hard and fast rule cannot be given, but in my opinion it is safer to slightly under- estimate the male bird's power, as we are desirous of enjoying a successful breeding season. It is interesting at this stage to note that the male bird almost entirely confines his attentions to the hens that are laying, and this fact should be borne in mind when you hear wild stories of enormous harems and all eggs fertile. Possibly no more than one- third were laying at any given period. Mr J H Sutcliffe in his admirable book Artificial Incubation and its Laws gives the following approximately rough guide, as so very much depends upon the stamina of the stock. The table assumes that the stock is fully matured and in good con- dition." CONFINED.

I PERIOD FROM MATING TO FERTILITY Again I deprecate a mathematical formula experiments have demonstrated that an egg has been fertile laid on the third day after mating. This, ItpweVer, is quite exceptional, and for practical purposes it is advisable to allow quite a week to elapse before setting the eggs. I PERIOD OF MALE BIRD'S INFLUENCE AFTER REMOVAL. Another vexed question, and in my opinion varying according to circumstances connected with each individual case. A period of ten days is the greatest limit I have personally known of a fertile egg after the last coition, though cases of fertility have been quoted up to eight and ten weeks. These instances, however, are very rare, and the statements have been in more or less vague terms and lacking detail. I should never set eggs that were laid more than seven days after the removal of the cock do not misunderstand me, I am not denying fertility can exist beyond that duration of time, but I believe the percentage of fertile eggs would be so small, a better profit could be made by sell- ing or eating them.

[ALL RIGHTS RESERVED.] BIBLE STUDIES CONDUCTED BY PASTOR RUSSELL. THE GOOD SAMARITAN. I The Lesson.—Luke x. 25-37. I The Text.—"Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.Mark xii. 31. I Our Studies since the first of the year relate to the last six months of our Lord's ministry. He knew that his death was ap- proaching-that he must, as the antitypical Passover Lamb, be put to death the follow- ing spring, on the fourteenth day of the first month. His ministry had only begun to awaken the people. The seventy, whose ordination, or commis- sion, we considered a week ago, were sent across Jordan into the district known as Perea, and Jesus himself went thither shortly afterward. The purpose of his ministry was to thoroughly awaken all the Jews to a knowledge of the fact that the time of their visitation had come. Later, the seventy returned, expressing jcy and confidence, and remarking that even the demons were subject to them in the Father's name. The Master took occasion to tell them that they were overlooking their chief cause of joy, saying. "Rejoice, rather, that your names are written in Heaven"— than that demons are subject to your com- mand. So it is with all of us. Salvation is a personal matter with us. and works and preaching are merely incidentals connected with that work of personal salvation. The great time for works will be future. Then, if faithful, we shall be privileged to be associated with the Redeemer in his work of regenerating the world of mankind, break- ing the shackles of Sin and Death, granting deliverance to the captives, even as the Prophets foretold. No matter how praiseworthy are the social uplifts of the present time, they are as nothing compared with the great social and moral uplift which God has planned and which Messiah will institute with his Kingdom. Hence the first work of all Gcd's consecrated people is a personal one-the preparation of their own hearts and cha- racters for Divine approval, that they may have a share in the sufferings of the present time and in the glorious work of the future. TO GAIN ETERNAL LIFE. I At this point our Study for to-day opens. A lawyer thought to entrap the Master by asking the question: "Master, what shall I do to inherit eternal life? In those days, when the only law of Israel was the Law of God, a lawyer was one well versed in the teachings of the books of Moses. Jesus therefore said to this Doctor of Theology: How do you understand the matter? You know what is written in the Law. The lawyer replied. We are to love the Lord our God with all our heart, with all our soul, with all our strength, with all our mind; and our neighbour as ourselves. Jesus ap- proved this, saying that it was true. Do this—keep the Law, and you shall live. You will never die. The lawyer was caught before he knew it. He knew that the people of Israel had been dying for centuries, notwithstanding the Law; yet himself and others were out- wardly claiming that they were keeping the Liw. Jesus showed him out of his own testimony that he was not keeping the Law. as he pretended to do and as the Pharisees in general pretended to do. The fact is that no imperfect fallen human being can keep the perfect Law of God, for it is so comprehensive that only a perfect man could keep it thoroughly. The lawyer sought to make the best of a bad argument, and instead of acknowledg- ing his defeat he turned the question to Jcsus again: "Who is my neighbour"- whom I am to love as myself? This was one of the points which Jesus had particu- larly made against the Pharisees—that out- wardly they were pious, reUgious-they prayed, t'asted, etc., yet in their hearts they were unjust, and they would take un- just advantage of widows and orphans—not loving these as themselves. The lawyer sought to imply that the Law of God did not include everybody as his neighbour, but only certain special ones. WHO WAS NEIGHBOUR? t Jesus, however, again outgeneralled him, saying, I will giv(? you saying-, I will gin. you a parable. A certain man went down to Jericho; and on that lonely mountain road be was beset by thieves, who stripped him, wounded him and left him half dead. There happened to pass that way a priest, one of the highest repre- sentatives of the Law; and when he saw the man, he passed by on the other side. Like- wise there passed by a Levite, next in re- lationship to the service of the Law. the ser- vice of God. lie went a little nearer and looked at the poor man, but did nothing. Then came along a Samaritan, an outsider, not a Jew at all and he was filled with com- passion. He bound up the wounds, put the man on his beast and brought him to an inn. There he took care of the wounded Jew, sacrificing his own time and strength in the wounded man's interest. He even did more than this. He paid for the man's keep until he should return from Jerusalem. Now. said Jesus to the lawyer. I put th& question to you: Which of these men acted the part of neighbour to this man who fell among thieves? Which one of these treat- ments of the case would fulfil the require- ments of the Law, according to your judg- ment? The lawyer answered that the one who showed mercy on the man Was the one who had surelv done the neighbourly act. Jesus replied that this should be an example to "ihe lawyer, that he should do likewise- that he should be kind. thoughtful, generous, toward anv human being who was I in affliction-in need of help. LOVE FULFILS THE LAW. I I We do well to remember God's real object 1 in giving laws, commandments, etc. He is not taking pleasure especially in the num- ber of times that we bcw the knee or bow the head, or in the number of timf that we attend Divine worship, or in anything that we can do along the lines of formal worship. The Lorq especially delights to see us culti- vate His own spirit of love, kindness and generosity. "God is love; and. be that dwelleth in love dwelleth in God." (John iv. 16.) As the Apostle John also says, "He who loveth not his brother whom he hath seen, how can he (claim to) love God, whom lie, hath not seen ?"—how could he know that-he would love Gcd? (Jchn iv. 20.) Well does the Apostle Paul tell us that love is the fulfilling of the Lav/ Rom. xiii. 10. W.e arc not to understand the Apostle to mean that simply to have love would fulfil the law of God and give us everlfisting life. No! It is only for those who have accepted Christ that love fiilfils the Law. For all those who become disciples of Jesus, God has made a special arrangement, that the merit of Jesuo' sacrifice shall cover their blemishes, so that if they cultivate and possess the heart quality of love (Gcd-like- ness) it will be acceptable—because Jesus' sacrifice makes good all deficiencies. We are "ac pted in the Beloved." (Eph. i. 6.) "The r; hteousness of the Law is fulfilled in us, \10 are walking not after the flesh, but af!'1' the Spirit."—Rom. viii. 4. To whatever extent this high standard of love, sympathy, generosity, kindliness, con- trols onr hearts and rules our conduct, in that proportion shall we he the more God- like, the more Christ-like; and such merciful ones of the Lord's followers shall obtain mo rev li., hands nviuentiy tne great lesson tor Christian people to learn is to put away all these: anger, malice, envy, hatred, strife; and to put on all these meekness, gentleness, long- suffering. brotherly kindness, love. St. Peter tells us that if we do these thing we shall never fall, but that an abundant en- trance shall be granted iiiito us into the evrr'iv'ung Kingdom of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ.—2 Pet. i. 10-11.
